Chapter 72 Blitz: Head Start (Please recommend!)

A few minutes later, the officials successively notified both sides of the competition to enter the arena.

When Zhou Tiancheng followed everyone into the field, he kept looking at Bayern from the corner of his eyes. To be precise, he focused on Bayern's "twin stars" Thomas Muller and Toni Kroos.

"Joel, pay attention for a while, you need to pay more attention to that No. 11, that guy is very aggressive."

Zhou Tiancheng already had a thorough understanding of the abilities of the two prominent figures through the superstar growth system, so he quietly gave Matip a trick.

"Huh? Zhou, it looks like you know him very well, did you know each other before?" Matip's expression was slightly surprised.

"I saw that you didn't listen carefully. Didn't the boss say that he was dangerous and told us to be careful? You just listen to me. When did I cheat you?" Zhou Tiancheng made an excuse, conceals the fact of the system.

Schalke is very concerned about this final opponent from top to bottom. Putting aside the "feud" of losing to them in the semi-finals last season, Bayern, as the Bundesliga giants, has always been the best team in Germany to beat them. Although Bayern's dominance in the youth echelon is not as good as that of the first team, it is true at all levels, no exaggeration.

For example, now, Zhou Tiancheng's eyes have been going back and forth between Thomas Muller and Toni Kross, but the other side never even glanced at them.

This is the self-confidence of Bayern's youth players from wealthy families. They never care who their opponents are. In their belief, no opponent can stop them from winning.

Maybe even if they saw Zhou Tiancheng's gaze, with their pride, they wouldn't take it too seriously.

But Zhou Tiancheng had the same idea as them, and seeing that the other party didn't even give a straight response, Zhou Tiancheng was even more annoyed.

Was ignored? !
Even if I'm not famous enough, why ignore our whole team!
Now Zhou Tiancheng's concept of honor and disgrace has been deeply imprinted with the collective consciousness of Schalke, and even his own attitude has changed somewhat.

If he is provoked, as long as he does not violate his bottom line and principles, Zhou Tiancheng may be able to laugh it off in many cases, but if he directly ignores the whole team like this, Zhou Tiancheng will usually respond.

……

After side guessing before the start of the game, Schalke U19 got the kick-off right in the first half.This is also very consistent with the home lottery they drew before.In this final, Schalke U19 played in the home jersey.

Today Elgort's formation has changed, and he has put out a 4-2-3-1, which emphasizes the balance of offense and defense.Obviously ready to fight a war of attrition.

And Zhou Tiancheng's position has also been moved forward this season.Elgort has not given up trying to tap his offensive talent.In the second half of the divisional match, Zhou Tiancheng's position was fixed as an attacking forward.In today's 4-2-3-1 formation, his role is to play the central midfielder. To put it bluntly, he is the team's offensive axis.

When Zhou Tiancheng made clear his mission on the field, he had already thought that as the game progressed, he would be marked more and more closely by his opponents, so his plan was to try to show momentum at the beginning. Of course, it is best to achieve results. but.

It was the Chinese twin stars Zhou Tiancheng and Jiang Hao who kicked off in the upper middle circle of Schalke U19.

"Haozi, do you dare to play something evil?" Zhou Tiancheng suddenly asked Jiang Hao when the two stood facing each other in the middle circle.

The conversation between the two is naturally in Chinese, so it is completely possible to speak freely without worrying that the opponent will steal the tactics.

Jiang Hao's eyes lit up immediately: "Brother Cheng, what's your idea?"

Zhou Tiancheng replied: "Just the trick we used often when we were in the school team, have you forgotten?"

"Ah, sneak attack again? Hehe, okay! Brother Cheng, this is our specialty."

"Even if we can't win in the end, we must not be cowardly with the three tricks at the beginning." Zhou Tiancheng's voice was not loud, but the determination behind these words cannot be ignored.

After the referee blew the opening whistle, Jiang Hao first knocked the ball lightly to Zhou Tiancheng, and then sprinted towards the Bayern penalty area at full speed.

And Zhou Tiancheng didn't intend to short pass to the surrounding teammates, he took the ball forward two steps at a uniform speed, seeing that the Bayern U19 players didn't intend to quickly surround him and press down.Simply step on the ball directly under your feet, a little bit to tease the other party.

"Pass the ball, Zhou!"

"Zhou, what are you doing!"

Seeing that Zhou Tiancheng seemed to be deserting, the other teammates shouted at him.

Elgort was even more puzzled and worried, and immediately got up and walked to the sidelines, ready to try his best to remind Zhou Tiancheng to regain his senses and let the ball run under his feet.

Even Elgort thought that Zhou Tiancheng was short-circuited and made a low-level mistake. Only Zhou Tiancheng knew that he was just waiting for Jiang Hao to run to the right position and choose a suitable time to strike fatally.

The temporary calm is just the process of accumulating energy before enlarging the move.

Including the Bayern U19 players on the opposite side, they were also insufficiently prepared for Zhou Tiancheng and Jiang Hao. They never thought that they would use high-intensity defense to oppress them at the beginning of the game.Because in their subconscious, the party with the obvious strength does not need to do this.

But they didn't know that they missed the most correct choice, and the price of their arrogance was immediately realized.

Seeing Jiang Hao run to a position parallel to the central defender behind the opponent, Zhou Tiancheng immediately sent a long pass with a clear direction before everyone could react, and at the same time shouted with all his might : "Haozi, it's up to you!"

Needless to say, the tacit understanding between Jiang Hao and Zhou Tiancheng was almost at the same time. Jiang Hao really turned his horsepower to the maximum, and within two breaths, he was five meters away from the Bayern U19 defense core Badstuber. The terrifying acceleration ability made Bayern players completely unexpected.Especially Badstuber, who was overtaken at close range, felt Jiang Hao's overtaking speed like the wind in front of him, and he had a feeling of competing for speed with a sprinter in a trance.

What's more subtle is that Zhou Tiancheng's kick was launched from the middle circle and went straight to the penalty area. The long pass of more than 40 meters was quite precise. The first landing point happened to be the penalty spot.It was a difficult position for the goalkeeper to attack, and it was also difficult for the defender to chase back and deal with it.

This very sudden lightning attack has progressed to this point, and it can already be called an astonishing textbook level.But then Jiang Hao kept the ball in the penalty area, turned around and shot in the air, and directly penetrated the goal strongly, which is even more of an exquisite finishing touch.

Even Marcel Leff, the commentator who broadcast the finals on the sidelines, exclaimed: "Unbelievable! Absolutely incredible! This should be the fastest goal in the youth league this season! From the suddenness of tactics and the difficulty of each link and In terms of completion, it is flawless! In any league, it is enough to be selected as the TOP10 goal collection of the season!"

Except for the "instigator" Zhou Tiancheng, no one expected that Schalke would take the lead in the finals.
